Owners Manual v1.03
Thank you for purchasing this Kawai MP10 stage piano.
This owner’s manual contains important information regarding the usage and operation of the MP10 stage piano.
Please read all chapters carefully, keeping this manual handy for future reference.
AboutthisOwnersManual
Before attempting to play this instrument, please read the Introduction chapter from page 10 of this owners manual. This chapter
provides a brief explanation of each section of the MP10’s control panel, an overview of its various jacks and connectors, and details
how the components of the instrument’s sound is structured.
The Basic Operation chapter (page 18) provides an overview of the instrument’s most commonly used functions, beginning with
turning sections on and o, adjust their volume, and selecting sounds. Later on, this chapter introduces basic sound adjustment
using the four control knobs, before examining how EFX, reverb, amp simulation, and EQ can all be applied to dramatically change
the character of the selected sound. The chapter closes with an explanation of the instrument’s metronome/drum pattern and
transpose functions.
The MIDI Functions chapter (page 31) demonstrates how the MP10 can be used as a MIDI controller, while the EDIT Menu chapter
(page 34) lists all available PIANO, E.PIANO, SUB, and MIDI section parameters by category for easy reference. The STORE Button
& SETUP Menus chapter (page 47) outlines storing customised sounds, capturing the entire panel conguration as a SETUP, then
recalling dierent SETUPs from the MP10’s internal memory.
The Recorder section (page 51) provides instructions on how to record and play back pieces stored both in the instrument’s internal
memory, and also MP3/WAV audio les saved to USB memory devices. Additional USB functions are covered in greater detail in
the USB Menu chapter (page 66), while the SYSTEM Menu chapter (page 72) explains the MP10’s System Settings and various reset MP10’s System Settings and various reset
functions.
Finally, the Appendix section (page 76) includes listings of the instrument’s internal sounds and drum rhythms, MIDI reference
information, and full specication details.

MP10 Feature Highlights
The best keyboard action available in a stage piano
The MP10 utilises Kawai’s RM3 Grand wooden-key action, incorporating various grand piano action characteristics, such as contrasting
hammer weights - appropriately graded for each playing range - bass key counter-balancing, and correctly located pivot points for both
black and white keys. This unique ‘seesaw’ movement provides a consistent, evenly balanced action, while nely textured Ivory Touch key
surfaces not only enhance the enjoyment of playing, but also help to absorb moisture, thus preventing ngers from slipping.
In addition, the MP10’s keyboard action is equipped with a special Let-o feature, accurately recreating the subtle ‘click’ sensation felt
when playing the keys of a grand piano very gently.
PIANO section: The ultimate grand pianos for Concert, Pop, and Jazz
The MP10 captures the beautiful sound of Kawai’s highly acclaimed hand-built concert grand piano, with all 88 keys of this exceptional
instrument meticulously recorded, analysed and faithfully reproduced using proprietary Ultra Progressive Harmonic Imaging™ technology.
This unique process accurately recreates the broad dynamic range of the original grand piano, aording pianists an extraordinary level of
expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to the strongest, boldest fortissimo.
With separate categories for Concert, Pop, and Jazz playing, the MP10 oers the nest selection of high quality acoustic piano sounds ever
compiled for a Kawai instrument, while additional techniques and eects, such as string and damper resonance, and subtle key-release
sounds, are also applied, delivering a rich selection of vibrant piano tones with breathtaking realism and authenticity.
E.PIANOsection:BrandnewvintageEPs,twineects,andampsim
The MP10 features a selection of brand new vintage electric piano sounds, each with their own distinctive characteristics. Enjoy their
natural, organic sound, or pass the signal through a variety of classic eects stomp boxes, before playing it through one of the six classic
amp and speaker cabinets
SUBsection:Highqualitystrings,pads,andmore
The MP10’s SUB section features high quality strings, pads, and other useful sounds that are ideal for layering with acoustic or electric
pianos, or for playing individually, at the front of the mix. Feature functions such as Bell and Sweep add further variety to the sound, while
typical ADSR parameters and resonance/cut-o can all be adjusted directly from the panel’s assignable knobs.
MIDI section: Master keyboard controller
The MP10 features a dedicated MIDI section for controlling external devices, or integrating into the studio as a master keyboard. Use
the assignable panel knobs to send CC# to connected hardware, or the recorder transport buttons to control a DAW without touching a
mouse or leaving the piano. The MP10 even includes LINE IN jacks and a dedicated panel fader to adjust the level of connected devices,
such as that old expander module or synth that you just can’t live without, or a laptop running software instruments.
Intuitive operation, large LCD, real-time assignable control knobs
The MP10’s control panel is clearly arranged and easy to use, with related functions grouped together and placed where you’d expect to
nd them. A large LCD display and four assignable control knobs, allow several parameters to be adjusted directly in real-time, without
getting lost in menus - concentrate on playing, rather than trying to remember which button does what.
156 Setup memories: enough for the busiest stage musician
The MP10 allows every single customised sound, knob position, fader level, and adjustable parameter to be stored in memory as a SETUP,
and recalled at the touch of a button. With over 150 SETUP memories, the MP10 is ideal for busy stage musicians who like to plan several
shows ahead, before going out on the road.
USB to Device functionality, with MP3/WAV/SMF le recording and playback.
The MP10 is equipped with USB connectors that not only allow the instrument to be connected to a computer for MIDI use, but also
to load and save data to USB memory devices directly. This ‘USB to Device’ feature allows customised sounds, SETUP memories, and
recorder songs stored in internal memory to be saved to USB for posterity.
USB memory devices can also be used to play back MP3 or WAV audio or SMF MIDI les, allowing performing musicians to play along with
professional backing tracks, or simply learn the chords or melody for a new piece. It is even possible to save performances directly as MP3,
WAV, or SMF les for emailing to band members, casual listening away from the keyboard, or further editing using an audio workstation.

Introduction
Understanding the MP10
Preparation before use
The MP10 does not feature built-in speakers. Therefore, in order to listen to the MP10, it will rst be necessary to connect a mixer,
keyboard amplier, or headphones to the instrument.
Once connected to an audio output device, press the POWER SWITCH located on the right of the rear panel to turn on the MP10.
It is recommended to turn on the MP10 before the audio output device in order to avoid the unpleasant switching noise that can
sometimes occur.
MP10 section structure: explanation
The MP10 features 4 independent sections: PIANO, E.PIANO, SUB, and MIDI. Each section features a dedicated VOLUME fader and
can be turned ON or OFF freely.
The PIANO, E.PIANO, and SUB sections all share largely the same operation, with 3 category buttons and 3 sounds assigned to each
category (9 dierent sounds per section). The PIANO and SUB sound sections share one EFX module, while the E.PIANO section
oers two separate EFX modules and an additional AMP simulator. All sounds can be adjusted using the various parameters in the
EDIT menu, with additional ‘Feature Parameters’ that are specic to each of the three sound sections.
REVERB settings are common for all sound sections, however the DEPTH can be controlled independently for each section.
Finally, the EQ controls are also common for all sound sections.
Modications to each sound can be stored as individual SOUND presets, while the entire conguration of the MP10 itself can be
stored in one of the 156 SETUP memories.
As noted previously, the master VOLUME fader does not aect the FIXED OUTPUT jacks, but does aect the NORMAL OUTPUT jacks.
This allows audio engineers to control the level of the instrument at the mixing desk, while still allowing performers to adjust the
volume of their monitor speakers freely.
